Lyrics — Hollow Crown
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
He trades his coat for silence and a key
He trades his coat for silence and a key
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
He trades his coat for silence and a key
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
A compass spins inside a locked museum
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
